The views expressed in this document are only those of its independent author The purpose of this paper is to share some findings and initial thoughts yielded by the fieldwork I conducted on Greek migration to Chile in Santiago, in October 2019. The data and analysis that follow are both at a preliminary stage and reflect the beginning rather than the completion of fieldwork. The material on which this presentation is based is both archival and ethnographic. Between 1896 and 1920, approximately 450,000 Greeks left their country of origin1. The majority of them (namely 350,000) ended up in North America, where they have evolved into one of the largest communities of the Greek diaspora, with 1,316,074 Greeks living in the United States (according to the 2010 census) and 253,000 in Canada (2011 census). In contrast, the migration of Greeks to South America was limited, with only 20,000 Greeks residing in Argentina today and 25,000 in Brazil, according to data from the General Secretariat for Greeks Abroad2. Greek migration to Chile can be divided into at least two periods, the first going back to the end of the 19th century, as already mentioned. The oldest application for the acquisition of Chilean-Greek citizenship that I located in the Chilean archives was filed in Santiago in 19143. The first Greek to apply for Chilean-Greek citizenship was born in 1898 in Gevegeli, which today is situated in North Macedonia4. 1 AGRANTONI Christina, « Viomihania : Apo tis arhes tou aiona mehri ti Mikrasiatiki Katastrofi» in HATJIIOSIF Christos(dir.)

As Giorgos narrates, his grandfather's brother arrived by sailboat before 1905 at the port of Valparaiso and, since the ship carrying him sank shortly before landing, Giorgos’ ancestor decided to settle in the city. Originating from the island of Kefalonia and a sailor himself, he worked on ships, which docked at the port and had a Greek crew (mostly in the catering sector). Gradually, he and his son went on to establish various businesses, the last of which was a restaurant still operating in Valparaiso city centre and now run by his grandson. 3 When the Panama Canal made travel faster, Greeks settled mostly in the north of Chile, in Antofagasta in particular. Despite the prominence of local saltpetre mines (salitreras in Spanish), Greek immigrants did not work as miners, but initially as small traders. Historian Maria Damilakou,6 who has studied 608 files of Greek immigrants who settled in the region since the last decades of the 19th century, notes that ‘the group of Greek immigrants is of considerable size and is devoted in its absolute majority to commercial activities’. More specifically, ‘of these, eight arrived in Antofagasta before 1900 (the first one in 1886), 87 in the first decade of the 20th century, 188 in the 1911-1920s, 200 in the 1920s and 63 in the 1931-1940s. Among the 608 immigrants, there were only 38 women, most of them married. The causes of Greek immigration were similar to those of other Balkan and Middle Eastern countries: economic problems in rural areas, the Balkan wars, problems in the Greek regions of the Ottoman Empire that had not yet been liberated, as well as the gradual activation of social networks promoting immigration from certain regions and populations. Besides the urban centres of Athens and Thessaloniki and certain regions of Asia Minor, where migration must be linked to the Greek defeat in Asia Minor in 1922 and the arrival of more than one million refugees in Greek urban centres, some island and rural regions stand out clearly among the places whence the Greeks who arrived in Antofagasta originated. These are the islands of Kythira and Antikythira, the province of Laconia and more particularly the region of Va tica at the south-eastern tip of the Peloponnese, the village of Oktonia on the island of Evia and the village of Krokylio in the province of Fokida in continental Greece. With the exception of Fokida, a mountainous province, these places of Greek origin, had all the characteristics of island societies: they were the crossroads of different civilisations, depended on maritime activities and had a strong migratory culture. In Antofagasta in 1917, a number of the Greek immigrants created the Sociedad Helenica de Socorros Mutuos de Antofagasta, a mutual assistance club that exists even today. The second wave of immigration is linked to the economic situation in post-war Greece and among the population that migrated to Chile we encounter different social classes. Nikos, 86 years old today, immigrated to the country at the age of 20, when his father, who dealt in imported and exported machinery, chose Chile to settle in among all Latin American countries. Nikos arrived with his father in Santiago in 1953, followed by his mother and his two brothers. 6 DAMILAKOU Maria ; Migración, comercio y moral en los márgenes del mundo salitrero. Oficina «CHACABUCO» 1920-1940, Estudios MigratoriosLatinoamericanos, Año 21, n°62, 2007, pp.85-128. 4 The mother, despite being highly educated and already speaking English and French as she had attended a private school in Athens, never worked, while Nikos learned Spanish and studied civil engineering in the country. After his father’s death, he took over his father’s business. At the other end of the spectrum lay the narratives of Anna, of Armenian descent, and of Mario, of Greek-Italian descent. After the end of World War I, Anna’s parents came to Athens from Turkey as ‘stateless persons’. Anna was born in Athens in 1935 and, after the end of World War II; in 1956 the family arrived in Chile because Anna’s father had a friend in the country. Mario, on the other hand, was born in the midst of World War II, in 1941 in Egypt. His Italian father was sent from Italy to Egypt, where he was captured by the English allied forces and met a Greek woman, Mario’s mother. The family remained in the country until 1962. From Egypt, they moved to Athens, but their stay there was very short and they migrated again, this time to Chile. If migration allows us to understand the political, social, and economic conditions prevailing in the country of departure, what can we learn from immigrants not leaving the host country? A key feature of Greek immigration to Chile is that of non-return to the country of origin, a feature shared with immigration in both North America and Canada as well as Australia. Only one of the Greeks I met told me that he wanted to return to Greece. Moreover, only one of the interviewees reported that their parents had expressed a desire to return, and although all those I met, had been to Greece on vacation, no one had returned to settle down. For the interviewees and, as it appears through their narratives for their ancestors as well, the reasons for their non-return to Greece and therefore their permanent residence in Chile are in line with the great geographical distance and the scarcity of available transportation, in particular ships, with both factors contributing to raised travel costs. However, the geographical distance and the material means available, though they may explain a potential non - return to Greece, do not explain permanent residence in the host country. In other words, they do not disclose social order, as Sayad notes in the case of immigrant workers arriving in France after World War II. 5 In this sense, Greek immigration to Chile must be viewed over time by analysing the social status or social advancement of immigrants within Chilean society. We already know that after the economic crisis of 1930 and the years that followed, part of the Greek immigrant population residing in Antofagasta moved to Santiago where they also developed economic activities. Thus, this predominantly rural population did not become a workforce in the mines, but, thanks to its commercial activity, became urbanised in a relatively short period. If the world of salitreras, as Maria Damilakou notes, ‘is defined, in a way that is both original and paradigmatic, as a privileged space of the ‘modern’, the cradle of the Chilean proletariat and the political and social struggles that marked Chile in the 20th century’, and if it is indeed the laboratory for the establishment of a capitalist economic system which led to the redefinition of social identities, what position did Greek immigrants have in this system at the turn of the century and why, although of rural origin, did they not become workers? A second issue that the fieldwork highlighted was that of language.

From a present-day perspective, early descriptions and documenta- tions show some shortcomings (viz., they are often fragmentary and biased in several respects), but they nonetheless constitute a trove of valuable resources | downloaded: 2.10.2021 for later work and ongoing revitalization endeavors. Current documen- tary work is now more balanced in terms of Himmelmann’s (1998) three- parameter typology (i.e., it pays close attention to communicative events of different kinds of modality, spontaneity, and naturalness), employs audio and video recordings, and takes copyright, access, and sustainability issues seri- ously. It is also more collaborative and empowering vis-à-vis the role played by indigenous collaborators than in the past and tends to be reasonably multi- disciplinary. Many indigenous languages of Latin America in general and of the Southern Cone in particular have not been documented until recently. The Chonan languages of Patagonia, for instance, drew the attention of linguists and anthropologists only in the 20th century.

  • Caucasian Urums and Urum Language (Kafkasya Urumları Ve Urum Dili)
    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by Publications at Bielefeld University Caucasian Urums and Urum language (Kafkasya Urumları ve Urum Dili) Stavros Skopeteas, Bielefeld University submitted to the Handbook of Endangered Turkic Languages, ed. by Süer Eker and Ülkü Çelik Abstract Urum people identify themselves as Turkish-speaking Pontic Greeks who left Anatolia at the beginning of the 19th century. A major group emigrated to the highlands of K’vemo K’art’li, where they still live today. They conserved the variety of Turkish that their ancestors were speaking in the time before emigration, enriched by influences from the languages in their new environment, in particular from Russian. The Urum language displays substantial similarities with the Turkish dialects of Anatolia; beyond these similarities, it displays some unique developments (e.g., in vowel harmony) as well as properties that are traced back to influences from Russian (e.g., in the use of subordinate clauses). Keywords Urum, Anatolian dialects, phonology, morphology, lexicon 1. Preliminaries/Giriş This chapter is devoted to Caucasian Urum, a language spoken in the highlands of K’vemo K’art’li in Georgia. The basic substrate of Caucasian Urum is Anatolian Turkish; Urum people are bilingual in Russian and the currently spoken language has a great amount of Russian loanwords, which hinders the mutual intelligibility with Turkish as spoken in Turkey. The Urum language spoken in the Caucasus has to be distinguished from the Crimean Urum spoken in Ukraine. Both linguistic communities share the same ethnonym (Section 2.1) but their languages are not immediately related (Section 3.1).

  • Appeal for a Ban of Highly Hazardous Pesticides
    Appeal for a ban of highly hazardous pesticides Decades of experience has shown that, despite numerous ‘safe use’ programs, the ’safe use’ of highly hazardous pesticides (HHPs) is not possible. People, farm- animals, wildlife and the environment continue to suffer considerable harm from HHPs. After decades of failure which have seen millions of deaths worldwide, new policies are needed to stop pesticide poisonings. A progressive phaseout and ban of HHPs, along with new policies for supporting alternatives, can make a change towards a healthy and sustainable world for all. We, the undersigned organizations, call on governments and corporations to take concrete steps towards a progressive ban of HHPs and their substitution with eco- system-based alternatives.
